In fracture, especially in long bones, the body starts giving weight ___________(a) medially(b) axially(c) centrally(d) normallyThis question was addressed to me by my school principal while I was bunking the class.The query is from Fractures in chapter Orthopaedics of Clinical Science

Answer»

Correct answer is (a) medially

For explanation: When a PART gets FRACTURED, we try to AVOID disturbing the injured area. THUS, we lean towards a side and so weight bearing happens medially, i.e. in the side. This part is to be taken into CONSIDERATION while designing some implant or when giving an assistive device.
